in this case, yes you do. the visor rule is pretty ****ing black and white.

If Malkin was guilty of the instigator then yes, the visor rule would come into play. This wasn't the case because both combatants were completely willing participants. Show me one situation where two guys fought spontaneously (non-staged) and both clearly wanted to fight where one of them was given an instigator. It doesn't ever happen, period. Malkin's visor therefore has no bearing on anything.
watch the ****ing replay, dick, there is no way bergeron (or anyone on either team, sans malkin) wants to fight anyone, especially a dirty penguin with his visor on. you want context? it's a freaking PK in a playoff game. you want more context? show me when malkin actually fights anyone, much less anyone even remotely his own size. you want more context? go watch him instigating zetterberg in an almost identical situation. or being a dirty bitch against hamonic.

Putting the rulebook in context with how the game is actually officiated on the ice is not ignoring it, you jackass.

I meant heartless euro in the same way you go around calling somebody a pizda, christ. If you're going to be Muresan's right hand man, you're going to need to lighten up for this to work. Nothing I say is meant as a personal insult. Can you imagine how bent out of shape you would get if Murs was a Penguins or Flyers fan? My goodness.
i resent the insinuation that i am anyone's right hand man. and don't worry, i didn't mean it as a personal insult. after years of you bringing your hftard-pen-apologist opinions over here, i just really think that little of you.
